What does your pacman frog weigh?

My 6 month old horned frog is only 18g,I am really worried that it is too thin,does anyone know the weight of theirs?Thanks Jackie

At that age I would have thought he'd weigh a few hundred grams. I don't have solid numbers in my head but at a minimum I would say he should weigh about 100g.

He is an inch and a quarter long,so quite small,he does look bright today and is sat in his water dish which I am changing twice a day,he has been in there since midnight as I got up in the night to check him.I use coco husk as substrate and was changing it all weekly and cleaning out with boiling water,although I clean out any poo straight away.I use bottled water and feed earth worms,crickets and locusts,have offered wax worms yesterday and this morning and a pinky mouse as I thought it might start him eating again but as he has never had one he didnt touch it.
Overall I am pleased that he looks brighter just concerned that he cant lose any more weight

Have you got any pics?

What temperature and humidity are you keeping him at?

Do you have lighting / heating (is the heating on the side or bottom of the tank)?


I find they often prefer smaller food items!

I maintain 6 bbs albino approximately 3 months, they weigh 20 to 30 grams of thinner to heavier.
